    Angel Investor Group Profile
    Launchpad Venture Group FundingPost Venture Capital and Angel Investor Network
    Launchpad Venture Group is an angel investment group based in Boston, Massachusetts. It has a pool of members with vital experiences in various fields working hand-in-hand towards success in the investment business. Its members are experts in their own fields that include the technology, finance, and service industries.

    Currently, the Launchpad Venture Group has more than sixty member investors. They created a credible foundation accumulated from significant connections with partners in the investment and service businesses. With 25 years of experience in entrepreneurship, its members have founded and built more than 100 companies. With knowledge in law, finance, and recruitment, the Launchpad Venture Group, is truly a credible investment group. Some of the members' fields of expertise include enterprise software, technical software, medical informatics, medical instrumentation, chip technology, general instrumentation, and telecommunications.

    The Launchpad Venture Group can provide investment funding ranging from $100,000 to $500,000. Only companies that are in their early stage of development are eligible to apply. Moreover, a number of very important qualifications are taken into consideration. The group searches for a company that is highly innovative and technologically motivated. This refers to technological products or services, a product or idea that does not necessarily have to be new but has been re-invented into a whole new concept or a company where technology plays a vital role in its operations. A company should also have a very high market potential that can in return produce a high return of investment. To make this possible, a company should have a potential market worth $100 million. The investment group is geared toward companies that will become market leaders with over 30% market share within the next five to seven years.

    The funding applications of the Launchpad Venture Group usually come from its own members. Others who desire to apply are also welcome to submit their applications and executive summaries online. The group holds a meeting to screen potential investments. A company shall then be chosen and required to submit a business plan prior to its presentation. Every month, the group meets to review two prospective companies. Each company is given 10 minutes to present its business proposal, which will be followed by a panel discussion with the members of the group. A due diligence process comes next which entails series of meetings for a thorough evaluation of the candidate company. After this process, final investment decisions shall be made by the group.

    The Launchpad Venture Group company investments include Building Engines, Catalyst Oncology, GateRocket, InBoxer, JamTech, Mok3, Neuroptix, TimeTrade, UpdateLogic, Vela Systems, Yokel, and Zeetoo. A founding member of the Angel Capital Association, the group is also affiliated with Gesmer Updegrove, Eckert Seamans, Silicon Valley Bank and Levine Katz Nannis Solomon.
